Snow Patrol have taken a load of abuse in their time. Some of it is well deserved: their output since Eyes Open has been poor to say the least.
Luckily this track comes from Eyes Open and it's a storming rocker worthy of Snow Patrol at their best.
The production is certainly razor sharp, the sound: cinematic pop!
Hidden gems: The two tracks on the B side weren't included on the parent album. The Only Noise is somewhat slight but it's still a cool acoustically driven tune.
Perfect Little Secret is at the experimental end of their repertoire and so...not to my taste.
Experimenting is great if you're King Crimson or, I don't know, Bowie, but if you're a great pop band with a fantastic lead singer - stick to that!
